A Clearer View with Contact Lenses in Oakville
If you’re looking for an alternative to glasses, contact lenses can offer you clear vision and a comfortable fit—even if you’ve previously been told you can’t wear contacts! At Envision Eye Care, we provide specialty contact lens exams and fittings so you can get the right lenses for your prescription and your life.
We recommend an eye exam at least once a year if you regularly wear contact lenses. During your contact lens exam, we’ll assess your vision, eye health, and the precise shape of your eyes to determine the best contact lens options for you.
We know that finding the right contact lenses can make a big difference. Our eye doctors are here to listen to your needs and preferences and guide you through your options.

Specialty Contact Lens Fittings
If you have a high prescription or a condition such as keratoconus, you might think contact lenses aren’t an option for you. However, we can help!
Dr. Johar-Mann is residency-trained to fit specialty contact lenses for certain eye disorders, including keratoconus. She has extensive experience fitting scleral lenses, rigid gas-permeable lenses, and hybrid lenses. If you’ve been previously told you couldn’t wear contact lenses, maybe you can!
Specialty Contact Lenses in Oakville
We have various contact lens types to suit your lifestyle and vision correction needs. We use specialized technology in your contact lens exam, including our Medmont topographer, to map the surface of your eye for a customized and precise fit for specialty lenses.
Here are some of the contact lens options you can explore with us:
- Dailies: Ease your routine and reduce the risk of infection with daily disposable soft contacts.
- RGPs: Rigid gas-permeable contacts can provide crisp, clear vision and may last 2–3 years before a replacement pair is needed.
- Multifocals: Correct both near and distance vision, offering a convenient solution for presbyopia.
- Ortho-k: These lenses temporarily reshape the cornea while you sleep, providing clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contacts.
- Sclerals: Large-diameter lenses that rest on the white part of your eye (sclera), offering exceptional comfort and vision correction, especially for keratoconus.
- Torics: These contacts correct astigmatism, a common condition that causes blurred vision at all distances.
- Aspherics: The curvature of these lenses is varied instead of consistent, providing sharper vision for people with unique eye aberrations.
- Hybrids: Combines a rigid centre for crisp vision and a soft skirt for comfort.
Contact Lenses for Myopia Control
If you’re a parent concerned about your child’s increasing nearsightedness, we offer contact lens options for myopia control. Both myopia control soft contact lenses and ortho-k lenses can help slow down the progression of myopia, protecting your child’s long-term eye health.
